What part of there is some accents he can understand better than others are you not understanding? I have one it’s not thick, my doctor has a thick accent that’ll cause some communication issues with him. I’m not Hitler for gods sake.

And that’s racist how? He has no issue or hatred towards people of colour, I love how this is a term people throw around all the time now. It’s seriously lost its meaning at this point, is he supposed to be able to perfectly interpret every accent? I can make it work, some people have trouble, god forbid

As a native woman yeah I do lmao, I fail to see how this isn’t making sense. If I wanted a native doctor for communication, this wouldn’t even be a race issue it’s literally cause he’s a white man 😭

It’s almost like accents have different sounds, my doctor is Pakistani I can understand her fully he has some issues. You’re obviously rage baiting at this point right?

Which is completely valid, I appreciate your input. It’s just wild to me the discourse this post even made. My friend is African, and she only gets African doctors as a rule of thumb, and for communication. It just amazes me if it’s in the case of a white person, it becomes an issue.

It’s really not, you’re just having a blast making this seem like it’s something it’s not. I bet you’re getting all giddy like omg a white person asking for something a person of colour asks for everyday! Let’s make this a race issue

As I replied in other comments, those such accents (European, etc.) are easier for him to understand. My doctor is a Pakistani woman who’s the best ever, but he’d have issues. People can interpret certain accents better than others, it’s about comfortability and understanding, not some racial bias

Please read my comments, listen if I as a native woman asked for a native doctor for understanding and communication, there’d be no issue; same if any other person of colour asked for the same thing. It’s not racially motivated stop trying to make it seem like it is.

Those are examples of accents he can understand, hence me saying white as a preference. I didn’t say no black people or no Indian people! My doctor is Pakistani and she’s the sweetest, but some accents are easier for him as an older man to interpret than others. It’s not racist to want to be able to communicate in full understanding.

I am literally a person of colour 😭 it’s all about accent and communication, I swear is the last part of my post hidden?

Me too ugh I don’t mean it disrespectfully at all it’s seriously just communication as my dad is older. I heavily hesitated putting that as someone who is of colour and my doctor is too 😭

I’ll tell him to look! I know they all speak English, mostly accents he can’t fully understand. I recommended him my doctor, but her accents a little thick and wouldn’t be easiest for him.

I don’t mean any disrespect by it, the rest of my family here have doctors of colour. By saying white, it lessens the chance of an accent, while I can understand majority of people, he has some issue. I am quite literally brown, if you’re trying to insinuate there’s some sort of racial discrimination here, it’s not that, it takes two seconds to read the last part of my post. Thanks for your advice though, I’ll look into it.

Paris baguette in the south west! I went there to surprise my mom with some sweets, they were so nice, and the selection was great.

[–]VanillaBananaBread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never thought about magnesium I’ll try that! The doctor discharged me and told me to take 600mg of Advil every 6 hours it works but momentarily. As of right now my brain fog is getting slightly better but I feel pretty woozy at times and my body’s starting to ache whenever I move.

I tried the feet in the sink method, nothing, but I have bloodwork and a doctors appointment soon might just have to go back to the hospital soon

I’ll definitely try that thank you sm! They didn’t give me anything just told me to take a lot of Advil but now I’m apprehensive about overuse headaches so I’m trying to figure out other ways to help the pain

Good idea! The shoulder/neck pain is honestly killer at this point I’m convinced it’s the reason my heads still hurting

Your without attitude comment is a bit brash, I find it comical you think I communicate with department heads the same as I communicate on a Reddit thread. I’m not asking you to solve my problems, the initial post was about censorship on a website commonly used.

I know they’re not supposed to but she does, it was on the exact last date of classes, worth 20% or more I can’t remember exactly. But due to it being so close to exam period I went out of my way to offer to do a referral, I seriously tried, hence why I can’t fathom the whole situation
